Mathematics is at the root of many social, technical, medical, and environmental issues faced by society today. RIT's School of Mathematical Sciences equips its graduates with deep understanding of math principles, a toolbox for applying those skills to real-world problems, and the ability to express complex ideas in a way that laypeople can understand.

The School of Mathematical Sciences provides a solid collegiate math education to every RIT undergraduate but continues its offerings to include high-level specializations such as statistical forecasting, digital encryption, and mathematical modeling.

Provides students with a strong foundation in mathematical and statistical methodology, its applications, the use of statistical computing packages, and the skills to communicate the results of statistical analysis

The statistics immersion provides an opportunity for students to deepen their technical background and gain further appreciation for modern mathematical sciences and the use of statistics as an analytical tool

Provides students with the capability to apply mathematical models and methods to study various problems that arise in industry and business, with an emphasis on developing computable solutions that can be implemented.
